I have been obsessed with this game, my hubby bought me a year membership so we can play together. I have also been silently accumulating $$$ for Mobsters on myspace, im making a hitlist "rider" account.

lol. I had read a review about Wizard 101 and that reviewer said that the company did very well to hook most users right away. I had meant to try it out but since you apparently can't get very far without a membership (and since I am becoming more and more picky about my games), I didn't get around to it.

However, since you said that you have been obsessed with it, I guess I'll stay away. No need to find myself another game to obsess over.
